AP Biology - Enzymes

Some bacteria are metabolically active in hot springs because ____________

• their enzymes are insensitive to temperature
• they use molecules other than proteins as their main catalysts
• their enzymes have high optimal temperatures
• they are able to maintain an internal temperature much cooler than that of the surrounding water

Which of these is NOT true?

• Enzymes can denature (change shape) when the temperature gets too high.
• Enzymes can only be used once in a chemical reaction. 
• Extreme pH can denature enzymes.
• Enzymes speed up chemical reactions.
